Company Description
Snubbed by advertisers when he founded his company 60 years ago, the late John Johnson pushed his magazine company to the front of the pack. Led by flagship EBONY (a monthly general interest magazine for African-Americans), Johnson Publishing Company is a black-owned publishing firm. It also publishes news magazine JET. Its Fashion Fair Cosmetics is marketed for African-American women, while its EbonyJet Entertainment Group oversees branded content through theatrical, TV, and digital platforms. The company additionally has licenses for consumer products such as sunglasses and greeting cards. John H. Johnson founded the family-owned firm in 1942 with the publication of Negro Digest, inspired by Reader's Digest.
